| - I stopped here specifically for the snow and left loving their Basil seed drink. Don't get me wrong, their shave ice is delicious and much better than any option in Minnesota but the crazy topping to snow ratio had me experience a major sugar high I haven't felt in months. I ordered the taro and pistachio snow with red bean topping -- they were out of match green tea (shedding a tear as I type this). The snow itself had great texture, was not all melty, and was perfectly light. The red bed topping was what took the dessert way too far - way too sweet, thick, and overwhelming. Next time, I think I will just get the mochi topping and call it a day.
Now, to the best part about this place, the house special basil seed drink. It looks creepy as hell, like there are a million spider eyeballs poured in there but the second I had a sip I knew I would somehow have to find a copy cat recipe to bring this deliciousness back to Minnesota. The drink itself is really refreshing, not overly sweet, and a great combination of pomegranate seeds and lychee with the melon flavored basil seeds. I would really recommend this specific drink to anyone trying this place out because there aren't a lot of boba houses that have this drink. You can get bubble tea any where now a days..but this basil seed drink? Truly a special treat.
A note about service: super nice, friend, fast, and helpful.
Parking is easy, it's in a strip mall so there's plenty of space.
